SS against Tube Preamp

Hi Guys,
I have been adviced several times to get a tube preamp to mix it with my solid state amp. I would like to hear opinions about this combination and if it really change the sound for the better. I don't want to spend my money without to be sure there will be an improve. I mean between the same level.
Thanks,
Jorge.

The tube evangelists hyperbolic fervor that finds it necessary to damn ss gets downright silly sometimes.

Well, Dvjorge, it seems you like what you hear in a tube setup.
So my guess is you enjoy the warmth and smooth upper frequencies a tube setup provides.
A Conrad Johnson tube preamp is what you want. IMO. Or a BAT would be a second choice, but i would look for a Conrad Johnson preamp if i were you.
Good luck.
